Hi
Welcome to healthcare magic.
The gammahlobulins may be increased due to viral infections or some hematological disorders.
Some untreated bacterial or fungal infections can also lead to the same changes.
You should get yourself evaluated by a local hematologist to pin point an exact cause and decide on the treatment.
The donation of plasma is not a likely cause for the raised gamma.
I hope the advice will be helpful for you.
I find this answer helpful
